i agree!

Belmonte signs side mirror ordinance

The Philippine Star 06/19/2005

Quezon City Mayor Feliciano Belmonte Jr. has signed an ordinance prohibiting the sale and purchase of surplus side mirrors of unknown origin within the city.

Council majority leader Ariel Inton, author of the ordinance, said the measure was introduced in response to the rising number of incidents involving the theft of side mirrors from parked vehicles and later sold to car surplus parts stores.

"The regulation and prohibition would prevent, if not totally eradicate, the proliferation of stolen side mirrors," Inton said.

Under the ordinance, a person caught selling second hand side mirrors of unknown origin faces a maximum fine of P2,000 and a jail term of three months. — Perseus Echeminada

laudible effort indeed, pero will this really be effective in curving out theft and sale of stolen side mirrors? However, I still hope that this gets adopted on all the cities in metro manila (it's better than nothing i suppose). personally though, i still can't get any sense of security even with this law in place. there has got to be something more that can be done to completly eradicate this problem.

lagyan nyo na kasi ng super glue yan. yun sa akin nanakaw minsan few months after nakuha ko yung car. after bumili ako ng replacement nilagyan ko ng super glue. then once nasa araneta ako near e.rodriguez may nag-try pumitik ng side mirror ko while naka red light. di umubra, di nya matanggal. tawa lang ako sa kanya sabay ngatngat ehehehehe! 3 years na since that di pa nanakaw ulit side mirror. dali lang kasi alisin ang side mirror, just push to one side then put fingers behind it, snap it out and wala ka na side mirror. kaya nga "pitik" ang term kasi that is all it takes, snap of the fingers!

and those low lifes do not much care to look first if it is etched or not. kahit big bold letters pa yung etching nyan di naman nila titignan bago nila pitikin. super glue! anti-pitik!

now in case you are worried na mahirap mapalitan pag nabasag, hindi din po. all you need is to put some glue remover and wait a few minutes and maalis mo na yung basag na mirror.

I definitely agree with you Yebo. Ganun din ang ginawa ko sa side mirror ko. Never na akong nanakawan ulit.
